They won't, they sound more excited about this deal than usOnana is the kind of dick who will probably go on a strike if Inter try to bump the price up.
Ye I’ve noticed that. They want this deal more than we do, they need funds. If they was smart they’d sell Onana and go for DDG on a free.They won't, they sound more excited about this deal than us
He was so flimsy though. Any time a shot at a good height came in from range you’d be covering your eyes. Onana is strong and commanding. He will give us all multiple heart attacks yes but the good will outweigh the bad by a large marginI liked Barthez
How many times have the geniuses who referred to Barthez mentioned that we won the Premier League two times in three seasons with him in goal, I wonder?Strong Barthez vibes in this video. Thought I'd do a search in the thread to see if Barthez has already been mentioned... 3 pages of results
I have seen him a lot. You will like him.Barthez is a top goalkeeper and a world cup winner despite his eccentricity. Until i see Onana play a proper match or two, he isn’t fit to lace Barthez’s boots
Here is the first situation of that video. Should have been a foul against him. Not saying that he doesn't make mistakes.Strong Barthez vibes in this video. Thought I'd do a search in the thread to see if Barthez has already been mentioned... 3 pages of results
Absolutely didn't mean it in a negative/derogatory way. He was entertaining as feck. "Taxi for Barthez" is something I will remember for the rest of my life
Put some respect on Barthez's name
Barthez, AFCON and 'why didn't we sign for free last summer' make up 2/3rds of the posts in this threadStrong Barthez vibes in this video. Thought I'd do a search in the thread to see if Barthez has already been mentioned... 3 pages of results
They need funds, hence why they're willing to lose the likes of him and Brozovic.They won't, they sound more excited about this deal than us
FFPGianluca Di Marzio reported United’s first official bid for Onana will be lodged tonight. However, according to ESPN, United may struggle to finance the move.
Their senior writer, Mark Ogden, claimed that a bid ‘even at £40m’ would ‘drain resources’ and leave United perilously short when it comes to signing a striker.
Inter are understood to want ‘at least €50m/€55m” for Onana, according to Fabrizio Romano. That equates to roughly £43m-£47m at current exchange rate.
If this is true, it is pathetic.
That's the whole point. We've signed Mount because we're planning on signing Onana, otherwise there's no point in Mount.I just saw a YouTube video of Onana vs Man City. Negated quite a lot of pressing. If he can do that against City, he is going to really change the way we play. Can't wait.
Both will signings will bring us that much closer to properly implementing ETH's preferred play style in season 2.That's the whole point. We've signed Mount because we're planning on signing Onana, otherwise there's no point in Mount.
Aye. It’s been reported there’s £260m available to spend but in order to toe the FFP line we can’t just go and blow it all. We’ll need to start selling players for a decent fee to spend more.
Are our FFP problems only solved by receiving nominal amounts from transfer fees or will getting rid of player salaries also help?Luckily it isn't, we are struggling against FFP, not the actual access to the money/credit in order to finance the moves.
We’ll see we’ve only just finished our last quarter of financial year, with record revenue of £630-640m predicted FSP states this summer we can spend 90% wh in ch us £567m
There is 260m available from the credit line open with BoA but that doesn’t mean Glazers will allow it to be spent regardless of FFP (Infact they don’t want it spent)Aye. It’s been reported there’s £260m available to spend but in order to toe the FFP line we can’t just go and blow it all. We’ll need to start selling players for a decent fee to spend more.
I really hope so. I found it so frustrating that we'd gone and finally hired a modern, up and coming coach, but then only provided him with a few of the pieces he needed to implement his vision. I know we spent a lot last summer, but that would have been necessary anyway with the players who'd left. The squad's profile has been so badly managed the last decade.Both will signings will bring us that much closer to properly implementing ETH's preferred play style in season 2.
He had to do with DDG for year 1 but I never thought he felt he was his long-term no.1 nor did he offer what he looks for in a keeper. Sort of like Hart and Mignolet for the likes of Pep and Klopp before they got their long term no.1's.
Nothing like it, Barthez did it for the attention, Onana does it for tactical reasons.This is akin to signing the next Barthez.
Will be good for a few laughs at least.
You wouldn't understand the mind of a (goalkeeping) geniusNothing like it, Barthez did it for the attention, Onana does it for tactical reasons.
You're right, I still don't understand this:You wouldn't understand the mind of a (goalkeeping) genius
Cause he's a complete plonker.Why don't we just keep Henderson?
Capable goalkeeper who can play the way that is needed. No fee = more to spend on a striker.
Can’t believe people are still throwing the Henderson hat in the ring. Nevermind the alleged leak rumours, as you say he’s a complete and utter plonker and so overrated. He would be as bad if not worse than de gea with ball at his feet and he actually makes it look more awkward than him somehow! Should sell and get rid.Cause he's a complete plonker.
His passing and distribution is barely any better than De Gea's. His sweeping, command of the box and claiming crosses is better, but his poor ability on the ball means he would never have been the long-term option for ETH.Why don't we just keep Henderson?

Claiming crosses is one of the reasons I want DDG replaced. Guy just gets rooted to his boxI think he is the guy, besides Costa. He costs less and is just as good if not better.
Replacing De Gea requires a good shot stopper and someone better at sweeping, claiming crosses and passing. Onana is all of those things.
you think they’ll wait until the first game? That’s optimistic!So how long into the first game do we think the usual suspects will be calling for Onanas head?
Yes I can. And it will be glorious.Can you imagine Onana doing this at OT?
Yikes. Claudio Bravo could pass but Pep didn't keep him around for long
I watched Inter the entire season. He barely put a foot wrong.Yikes. Claudio Bravo could pass but Pep didn't keep him around for long
One of those high ceiling, low floor types probably.
This video was uploaded years ago. If you want to judge him, do it off recently.
£60m? I thought Inter were looking for €50-55m? Is this the English media making an arse of the currency exchange yet again?Tweet
